February 7 2009: Feldenkrais Week Your Week Begins… In 1940, Rancho La Puerta initiated the “Fitness Week” —different classes every hour on the hour. The classes have changed since then, but the essence of the Ranch experience is timeless—a balance between fitness and renewal, achieved via a host of new challenges, relaxation and stretching, learning experiences, and surprises! You’ll soon discover that a hammock can be as important as an exercise mat and Mount Kuchumaa has secrets that can be revealed only when you leave the gyms behind. Use this schedule to plan your Personal Program for the week….but stay flexible-there’s so much to experience! Classes begin on time and are of 45-minute duration unless otherwise indicated. Please check the board in the lounge for details and sign up sheets. Above all enjoy your week with us! SATURDAY | February 7 Arrival Day
